Sure you can. If you qualify for the playoffs on a week that you lost that
means you backed into the playoffs. It is just a funny figure of speech.
If the Jets win the last game nobody will care that they backed into the
playoffs in week sixteen. But if they lose again then the really backed
into the playoffs and the sixth seed out of six. Or something like that.
true. limping in is more to the point.
the Jest were going good until the Pats kicked their sorry asses.

The Jets are giving up a lot of points for a team that was supposed to be
the Ravens on defense. I think the Jets sorry offense is giving a lot of
cheer to the opposing team.
Most years going all the way back to 1970.
But this way is better.
I am with you. The fact we can rest players is a huge benefit. I am
curious who will replace Sanchez. If they truly believe it is Brunell
then play him teh whole game. If they aren't sure split it with
Clemens.
Damn...I'm not so sure I'd rest any of them...they absolutely need the
"practice"
Well you have been there but losing a player is always a worry.
If a guy is nicked up, rest him, but maybe play the 1st half like
colts did last year.
I can see taking out Sanchez....and anybody else with a serious injury...but
too many of them need the work beyond that...and, they just don't have any
quality backups...aren't some of them playing already? Let's let McNothing
play and see what he can do....and run The Terminator some...let him get a
few carries...but who can you mess with on defense?

John, I am with you.
The one upside to this game could be to allow the offense to try to
function with a back-up. No back-up has had a real shot this year.
Buffalo would love to cream us so it would be a live game.
If our back-up cannot run the offense and produce with all these
weapons, shit can him/them and get someone younger or better for next
season.
Too many teams have had their seasons determined by the play of back-ups
at various points in a season.
Imagine the Jills without Fitzpatrick, the Cowboys without Kitna, the
Iggles without Vick.
Let's see what we have (not) got.

Agreed...very much so. Woody's replacement does not look bad and could use
the work to be ready when needed.
Jets shouldn't rest anyone if they healthy enough to play. Jets should
play to win because the 5th seed is still in play.
